The Limit

I reached my limit today
I tried to fly too high
Can’t stomach the thought of it
I’ve never tried
I move and move again
You went too slow
You moved a mountain
I tried to go below
Words fumble and fall around
But my river recedes
A famine for following
An acre full of weeds
You grow a plot of sand
But I sow the seeds
I had the fertile land
You worked within my means
Not giving up if we started something
Can’t give you time if I cannot afford it
If human nature makes you a stranger
Can’t give you time if I cannot afford it
You’re here and I’m back again
But I never go home
I’m picking up pieces of
The faces I’ve outgrown
Puzzle together the knowledge before you
Keep disconnecting the ties
So we can’t go back
Can’t go back
Back
Can’t go back
Back (I can’t go back, I can’t go back)
Can’t go back (I can’t go back, I can’t go back)
Back (I can’t go back, I can’t go back)
Can’t go back (I can’t go back, I can’t go back)
Not giving up if we started something
Can’t give you time if I cannot afford it
If human nature makes you a stranger
Can’t give you time when I cannot afford it
Not giving up if we started something
Can’t give you time if I cannot afford it
If human nature makes you a stranger
Can’t give you time when I cannot afford it
